Shame on our political leaders and their values’

I listen to the politicians and I am told they have shut down the government, brought us the precipice of default because they were elected to serve those that elected them. They stood their ground for the benefit of the American people.

Well, show me one American who thinks this was worth $24 billion in lost government revenue, or the pain and suffering of the millions of Americans affected by their actions. Their actions have shamed this great nation in the eyes of Americans and the rest of the world.

I can respect someone who sticks to their values. What are the values of this Congress if they can do this?
